table th, table td {
padding: 5px 15px 9px 5px;

Glad you like it.

As a side note, you should override the stylesheet rule instead of directly modifying the bootstrap css.

Please note that you must preload the bootstrap application component.

To preload the component add the following to your main config:

'preload'=>array(
.....
'bootstrap',
),

When preloaded the component registers and own path alias for bootstrap which is used internally (and can naturally be used also externally). This change was done to allow bootstrap to be placed in any directory.

Hi Chris , great work and I would love to get this extension in my Yii installation but the problem is I'm a newbie and I could not find any Install instructions , so dont know where to put various folders in the extension zip archive , is there any link / installation guide that I'm missing ?

Hey Vivek,

The installation instructions are on the extension page in the section titled "Setup".

I was wondering though why the BootTab isn't implemented as an extension of CTabView in Yii?

THe behavior you want of CTabView does not look to be supported in a BootTab (which has been rolled into BootMenu).

For example, for tabs you actually want to display a content view within the tab and be able to dynamically jump between tabs without page reload. This is not what CMenu does. I am confused as why it isn't extending the behavior of CTabView ?
